Yeah, not so nice for just downvoting a post of his though. Fediverse is better off without that kind of toxic behaviour.
Why would you downvote that post though?
The post was fine, the premise is wrong about the fediverse. That's why I downvoted and didn't interact further.
Hm, I see. Fair, to be honest.
What did you interpret the premise to be? I read the post when it was up, and it read to me like OP was saying essentially that too many toxic users and not enough admins willing to stand up to them make the overall experience not fun.
EDIT: Which is accurate in my mind at least when it comes to Lemmy
The whole notion that the fediverse is a failure. Ptz is entitled to his opinion, but he couldn't be serious that everyone would hold that inflammatory opinion as well. I still stand by my opinion that the fediverse is better off without toxic admins like this.
Yeah I remember that in the YPTB room yesterday. Normally I'd be harsh on this stuff but it's the end of the instance anyway, we'd be wasting our breaths. Also, I was talking about how helpful he was to other admins, idk if he is a PTB in his own spaces :p
